Sat Nav Thru Car Speakers?
I have a navman sat nav system in my car however when I am playing music I can not hear the sat nav over it. I know the easy option would be not to play music but is there anyway I can use the sat nav's audio out which is for headphones ect to connect it to my car speakers so I can hear both?
I have a new renault clio with a cd player. Any ideas? Thanks. |

It would be good to know how for as you say you cant always hear the Sat Nav when you got music or the radio on but I dont think it can be done.

You can get devices for motorbikes which cut out the music when the phone rings. I wonder if you could adapt one of these?

I wondered if I could use one of those short wave FM transmitters, the type you can plug into mp3 players and then tune your radio into the frequency. However I wouldnt be able to listen to a cd while tuned in ect.

Try not playing your music so loud.

Is the sat nav on a TomTom hardware or a PDA?
I have TomTom in my HP iPAQ (within built in GPS receiver), and use the bluetooth handsfree kit for the TomTom when listening to music. ^ This may be a solution if your device is bluetooth compatible. |

Halfords have a decent line of Sony CD players - I got the one at around the £120 mark , it's a GX300 i think. Anyways, it has a line in on the front so you can plug in a 3.5mm lead from the headphones jack of the sat nav to the input of the CD player, ensuring you have music which is interrupted by a German announcer's voice.
It's a decent stereo too.
